Cuts to the federal workforce under President Trump are threatening to roil Virginia’s off-year elections this November as Democrats seek to make them a political liability in the battle for control of the governor’s mansion and the House of Delegates.

More than 2 million federal workers received an email over the weekend threatening firing if they can't justify their work performance by Monday night.

The Office of Personnel Management told HR officials that employees wouldn’t be let go for not replying to an email asking what they did last week.
